Nexstar Media Aims to Cut 2% of Workforce Via Layoffs at Stations, Sales


Nexstar Media plans to cut 2% of its workforce, or about 260 staffers, largely at its TV stations and ad-sales staff

Nexstar Media, which has built itself up in recent years with an acquisition spree that includes TV stations and the CW network, now has to make some trims. The company, with holdings that also include the NewsNation cable network and the political news outlet The Hill, employs around 13,000 people, meaning that approximately 260 staffers could be affected. “This will enable Nexstar to focus on initiatives that more directly impact our viewers, partners and customers as we pursue priorities that represent our best long-term opportunities.”
